Palacio de Correos, Renaissance Revival postal palace in Plaza de la Rinconada, Valladolid, Spain.

The Palacio de Correos features grand arches spanning two floors, with rounded windows on the third level constructed from traditional red brick masonry.

Architect Jerónimo Arroyo won a design competition in 1913, leading to the construction and inauguration of this postal palace in February 1922.

The building incorporates Spanish Renaissance elements through its decorative ironwork, 16th-century tiles, and plasterwork moldings influenced by Plateresque traditions.

The central courtyard serves as an operational hub within the triangular plot, maximizing the functionality of the postal services headquarters.

During modifications in the 1970s, the original balustrade and tower were removed, with an additional fourth floor altering the classical aesthetics.
